Join us for our first Live at the Lapworth event of the year with Headquarters of Groove featuring Manola Jazz, where Mediterranean soul meets acid jazz groove.
Manola is an Italian singer renowned in her homeland for her powerful stage presence, warm voice, and deep passion for acid jazz.
After moving to the UK, she immersed herself in the local music scene, quickly building a solid reputation as both a soloist and a backing vocalist alongside acclaimed musicians. Her journey led her to join Headquarters of Groove, allowing her to further explore her love for acid jazz.
Together, Manola Jazz & Headquarters of Groove bring a fresh twist to the Midlands music scene. This vibrant ensemble of six musicians from diverse backgrounds blends Mediterranean flair with the soulful sounds of well-known — and sometimes forgotten — songs, reimagined with unique arrangements.
With a deep love for musical fusion, Manola brings together some of the most talented artists in the region, inviting audiences to rediscover classics through unexpected rhythms, textures, and energy.
